3 Maintenance

Chapter contents● Manage supplies

● Clean the device

● Management tools


Manage suppliesUsing, storing, and monitoring the print cartridge can help ensure high-quality output.

Supplies lifeThe average cartridge yield is 6,500 pages (for the Q7551A cartridge) or 13,000 pages (for the Q7551Xcartridge), in accordance with ISO/IEC 19752. Actual cartridge yield depends on specific use.

CAUTION EconoMode is a feature that allows the device to use less toner per page. Selectingthis option may extend the life of the toner supply and may reduce cost per page. However, it willalso reduce print quality. The printed image is lighter, but it is adequate for printing drafts or proofs.HP does not recommend full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, it is possiblethat the toner supply will outlast the mechanical parts in the print cartridge. If print quality beginsto degrade under these circumstances, you will need to install a new print cartridge, even if theremay be toner supply remaining in the cartridge.

Approximate print-cartridge replacement intervals

Print cartridge Page count Approximate time period1

Black (Q7551A) 6,500 pages1 3 months

Black (Q7551X) 13,000 pages 6 months

1 Approximate life is based on 2,000 pages per month.To order supplies online, go to www.hp.com/support/LJP3005 .

Manage the print cartridge

Print-cartridge storageDo not remove the print cartridge from its package until you are ready to use it.

CAUTION To prevent damage to the print cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than afew minutes.

Use genuine HP print cartridgesWhen you use a genuine new HP print cartridge, you can obtain the following supplies information:

● Percentage of supplies remaining

● Estimated number of pages remaining

● Number of pages printed

HP policy on non-HP print cartridgesHewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of non-HP print cartridges, either new orremanufactured. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence their design or control theirquality.

NOTE Any damage caused by a non-HP print cartridge is not covered under the HP warrantyand service agreements.

To install a new HP print cartridge, see Change the print cartridge on page 23. To recycle the usedcartridge, follow the instructions included with the new cartridge.

Print-cartridge authenticationThe device automatically authenticates the print cartridge when it is inserted into the device. Duringauthentication, the device notifies you whether a cartridge is a genuine HP print cartridge.

If the device control-panel message states that this is not a genuine HP print cartridge and you believeyou purchased an HP print cartridge, see HP fraud hotline and Web site on page 35.

HP fraud hotline and Web siteCall the HP fraud hotline (1-877-219-3183, toll-free in North America) or go to www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit when you install an HP print cartridge and the control-panel message says the cartridgeis non-HP. HP will help determine if the cartridge is genuine and take steps to resolve the problem.

Your print cartridge might not be a genuine HP print cartridge if you notice the following:

● You are experiencing a high number of problems with the print cartridge.

● The cartridge does not look like it usually does (for example, the orange pull tab is missing, or thepackaging differs from HP packaging).

4 Theory of operation

Chapter contents● Basic operation

● Internal components

● Timing

● Print cartridge memory system


Basic operationThis chapter presents an overview of the relationships among major components in the device, andincludes a detailed discussion of the image-formation system. The following systems are discussed:

● Formatter

● Engine control unit

● Laser/scanner system

● Pickup/feed/delivery system

● Image-formation system

Figure 4-1 Systems overview

FormatterThe formatter is responsible for the following actions:

● Formatting and controlling copies

● Receiving and processing print data from the computer interface

● Monitoring the control panel and relaying device status information

● Developing and coordinating data placement and timing with the print engine

46 Chapter 4 Theory of operation ENWW

Engine control unit (ECU)The ECU coordinates all device functions, according to commands that the formatter sends. It drivesthe laser/scanner system, the image formation system, and the pickup/feed/delivery system.

The ECU contains the following components:

● Engine controller PCA

● Low-voltage PCA

Figure 4-2 Print engine general structure on page 47 shows the relationship of the ECU to the pickup/feed/delivery system, the laser/scanner system, and the image-formation system. Figure 4-3 Enginecontrol system circuit diagram on page 48 provides the ECU circuit diagram. Figure 4-4 Low-voltagepower supply circuit diagram on page 49 shows the low-voltage power supply circuit on the ECU.

Pickup/feed/delivery systemThe pickup/feed/delivery system consists of several types of feed rollers and sensors. The ECU usestwo motors and two solenoids to drive the rollers. Three media-detection sensors detect media as itpasses through the device. If media does not reach or pass each sensor within a specified time period,the ECU determines that a jam has occurred and alerts the formatter.

The following components are identified in Figure 4-5 Pickup/feed/delivery system on page 50:

● M1, main motor

● M2, fuser motor

● SL1, tray 1 pickup solenoid

● SL2, tray 2 pickup solenoid

● PS2, duplexer media-detection sensor

● PS3, tray 2 media-detection sensor

● PS901, top-of-page sensor

● PS902, tray 1 media-detection sensor

● SR1, top output-bin delivery flag

● SR2, fuser-delivery flag

Figure 4-5 Pickup/feed/delivery system


Laser/scanner systemThe laser/scanner system receives video signals from the ECU and the formatter and converts thesignals into latent images on the photosensitive drum.

Figure 4-6 Laser/scanner system


Image-formation systemLaser printing requires the interaction of several different technologies, including electronics, optics, andelectrophotographics, to provide a printed page.

Figure 4-7 Print cartridge diagram

Each process functions independently and must be coordinated with the other device processes. Imageformation consists of the following five processes:

● Electrostatic latent-image formation

● Developing

● Transfer

● Fusing

● Drum cleaning

The five processes contain eight steps, which are shown in Figure 4-8 Image-formation systemon page 52 and described in the following sections.

Figure 4-8 Image-formation system


Step 1: Primary chargingDC and AC biases are applied to the primary charging roller, which transfers a uniform negative potentialto the photosensitive drum.

Figure 4-9 Primary charging

Step 2: Laser beam exposureThe laser beam scans the photosensitive drum to neutralize negative charges on parts of the drum. Anelectrostatic latent image is formed on the drum where negative charges were neutralized.

Step 3: DevelopingThe developing cylinder comes in contact with the photosensitive drum to deposit toner onto theelectrostatic latent image.

NOTE The charges on the exposed area of the drum are shown as positive in Figure 4-10Developing on page 53. The charges are actually negative, but they are more positive than thecharges on the developing cylinder.

Figure 4-10 Developing


Toner acquires a negative charge through friction from the developing cylinder and the blade. When thenegatively charged toner comes in contact with the drum, the toner adheres to the electrostatic latentimage. The image on the drum becomes visible because of the toner.

Step 4: TransferThe transfer charging roller, to which a DC positive bias is applied, imparts a positive charge on the printmedia. When the print media comes in contact with the photosensitive drum, the toner is transferred tothe print media.

Media

Transfer roller

Photo-sensitive

drum

Figure 4-11 Transfer

Step 5: SeparationThe elasticity of the print media causes its separation from the photosensitive drum. A static chargeeliminator aids separation by weakening any electrostatic adhesion.

Figure 4-12 Separation

Step 6: FusingThe DC negative bias applied to the fusing film strengthens the holding force of the toner on the printmedia and prevents the toner from scattering.


Figure 4-13 Fusing

Step 7: Drum cleaningThe cleaning blade scrapes the residual toner off of the photosensitive drum and deposits it into thewaste toner case.

TimingThe microprocessor on the engine control unit (ECU) controls the device operation sequences. Table4-1 Operation sequences on page 58 describes engine operations for each period of a printoperation. Table 4-2 Power-on sequence on page 58 describes each step of the power-on sequence.

Table 4-1 Operation sequences

Name Timing Purpose

WAIT From power-on until the end of the main motor initialdrive

Detects presence of a print cartridge. Clears potentialfrom the drum surface and cleans the transfer roller.

See Table 4-2 Power-on sequence on page 58 fora complete description of the WAIT (power-on)period. Also see Figure 4-17 Timing diagramon page 60 for detailed information about devicetiming.

STBY (standby) From the end of the WAIT or LSTR period until eithera print command is sent from the formatter or thepower is turned off.

Prepares the device to receive print commands

INTR (initialrotation)

From the time of the print command until the pickupsolenoid is turned on.

Prepares the photosensitive drum for printing.

PRINT From the end of the INTR period until the top-of-pagesensor detects the trailing edge of the media.

Figure 4-17 Timing diagram


Print cartridge memory systemThe memory tag is a nonvolatile memory built into the print cartridge. The cartridge usage condition isdetected as the engine controller reads or writes the data stored on the memory tag. The enginecontroller renews the information in the prescribed timing and reads or writes it from or to the memorytag.

The engine controller commands the memory tag to read or write with the following conditions:

● Read

● Power is on.

● The cartridge door is closed.

● A command has been received from the formatter.

● Write

● A page of media is printed.

● A command has been received from the formatter.

When the engine controller fails to read or write three times in a row, it determines that the memory tagis abnormal and sends a cartridge memory abnormality warning to the formatter.

64 Chapter 5 Removal and replacement ENWW

OverviewThis chapter documents removal and replacement of field replaceable units (FRUs) only.

Removal and replacement strategy Replace parts in the reverse order of their removal. Directions for difficult or critical replacementprocedures are included.

WARNING! The sheet-metal edges of the device can be sharp. Use caution when working onthe device.

NOTE Note the length, diameter, color, type, and location of each screw. Be sure to return eachscrew to its original location during reassembly.

Incorrectly routed or loose cables can interfere with other internal components and can becomedamaged or broken. Frayed or pinched cables can be difficult to locate. When reconnecting thecables, always use the provided wire loops, lance points, or cable guides.

Electrostatic discharge

CAUTION The device contains parts that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Alwaysservice the device at an ESD-protected workstation, or use an ESD mat.

Watch for the ESD symbol (shown below) to identify the parts that are sensitive to ESD. Protect theseparts by using an ESD wrist strap and by placing ESD-sensitive parts into protective ESD pouches.

Required toolsThe following tools are needed to service this device:

● #2 Phillips screwdriver with magnetic tip

● Small flatblade screwdriver

● Small needle-nose pliers

Service approachDevice repair normally begins by using the device internal diagnostics and the following two-stepprocess:

1. Isolate the problem to the major system (for example, the network or server, or the device).

2. Troubleshoot the problem by using the procedures in chapter 6.

After you locate a faulty part, the device can usually be repaired at the assembly level by replacing field-replaceable units (FRUs). Some mechanical assemblies might need to be repaired at the subassemblylevel. Hewlett-Packard Company does not support replacement of components on the printed circuitassembles.

Before performing serviceFollow the pre-service procedures before you perform service.

Pre-service procedures1. Remove all media from the device.

2. Unplug the power cord and the interface cable.

3. Lift the device off of any installed optional trays.

4. Remove the print cartridge.

5. Remove tray 2.

6. Place the device on an ESD mat. If an ESD mat or an ESD-protected workstation is not available,discharge body static and ground the device chassis before servicing the device.

Control-panel messagesControl-panel message types

Four types of control-panel messages can indicate the status of or problems with the device.

Message type Description

Status messages Status messages reflect the current state of the device. They inform you of normal device operationand require no interaction to clear them. They change as the state of the device changes. Wheneverthe device is ready, not busy, and has no pending warning messages, the status message Readyappears if the device is online.

Warning messages Warning messages inform you of data and print errors. These messages typically alternate withthe Ready or status messages and remain until you touch OK. Some warning messages are clearable.If CLEARABLE WARNINGS is set to JOB on the device DEVICE BEHAVIOR menu, the next printjob clears these messages.

Error messages Error messages communicate that some action must be performed, such as adding paper or clearinga jam.

Some error messages are auto-continuable. If AUTO CONTINUE is set on the menus, the device willcontinue normal operation after an auto-continuable error message appears for 10 seconds.

NOTE Pressing any button during the 10-second auto-continuable error message overridesthe auto-continue feature, and the button function takes precedence. For example, pressingthe Stop button pauses printing and offers the option to cancel the print job.

Critical-error messages Critical error messages inform you of a device failure. Some of these messages can be cleared byturning the device off and then on. These messages are not affected by the AUTO CONTINUE setting.If a critical error persists, service is required.

Clear jamsOccasionally, media can become jammed during a print job. The following are some of the causes:

● Trays are loaded incorrectly or overfilled.

● Tray 2 or tray 3 is removed during a print job.

● The cartridge door is opened during a print job.

● The media that is being used does not meet HP specifications.

● The media that is being used is outside of the supported size range (see Media specificationson page 13).

Avoid jamsUse this table to help avoid specific types of jams.

Table 6-1 Common causes of jams

Cause Solution

The print media does not meetHP recommended media storage anduse specifications.

Use only media that meets HP specifications. See Media specificationson page 13 or the HP print media guide(available at www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide) for media recommendations.

A supply item is installed incorrectly,which causes repeated jams.

Verify that the print cartridge and the fuser are correctly installed.

An input tray is loaded incorrectly. Remove any excess media from the input tray. Make sure that the stack of mediafits below the indicators inside of the tray.

The print media is skewed. The tray guides are not adjusted correctly. Adjust the guides to hold the media firmlyin place without bending it. If media heavier than 120 g/m2 (32 lb) is loaded into tray 2or tray 3, the media might skew.

The print media is binding or stickingtogether.

Remove the media and flex it, rotate it 180 degrees, or flip it over. Reload the mediainto the tray. Do not fan media.

The page is removed before it settles intothe output bin.

Wait until the page completely exits the output delivery assembly before you attemptto remove it.

When you are using the duplex printfeature, the page is removed before thesecond side of the document is printed.

Print the document again. During the duplex operation, the page will partiallyprotrude from the output delivery assembly (when the page is being reversed). Donot attempt to grab or remove the page. Wait until the page completely exits theoutput delivery assembly before you attempt to remove it.

The print media is in poor condition. Replace the print media.

The print media is not picked up by theinternal rollers from tray 2, tray 3, or tray4.

Remove the top sheet of media. If the media is heavier than 120 g/m2(32 lb), it mightnot be picked up correctly from the tray.

The print media has rough or jaggededges.

Replace the media.

The print media is perforated orembossed.

If the media does not separate easily, you might need to feed single sheets fromtray 1.




Cause Solution

The device supply items have reachedthe end of their useful life.

Check the device control panel for messages that prompt you to replace supplies,or print a supplies status page to verify the remaining life of the supplies.

The print media was not stored correctly. Replace the print media. The media should be stored in its original packaging andin a controlled environment.

Typical jam locationsThe following illustration shows the four locations at which jams can occur.

3 Top-of-page sensor (PS901)

4 Paper-width sensor (PS903)

5 Duplex sensor (PS502)

The device determines if a jam has occurred by determining whether paper is present at the sensor ornot at a specified time in the printing process. The printing process timing is stored in the device memory.If the device determines that a jam has occurred, it stops the printing operation and produces a control-panel error message. The table below describes the two different types of jams.


Jam type Description

Residual jam The device determines that a residual paper jam has occurred if any of the following sensors detectspaper when starting the initialization at power-up or when a door is closed.

● Top of page sensor (PS901)

● Delivery sensor (SR2)

● Paper width sensor (PS903)

● Duplex sensor (PS502)

Delivery delay jam The device determines that a delivery delay jam has occurred if the paper full sensor (PS4) doesnot detect the leading edge of paper within a specified amount of time after the top of page sensor(PS901) has detected the leading edge of paper.

Clear jams from the input-tray areas

NOTE To remove media from the tray 1 area, slowly pull the media out of the device. For allother trays, complete the following procedure.

1. Slide the tray out of the device, and remove any damaged paper from the tray.

ENWW Clear jams 151

2. If the edge of the paper is visible in the feed area, slowly pull the paper down and out of the device.If the paper is not visible, look in the cartridge-door area.

NOTE Do not force the paper if it will not move easily. If the paper is stuck in a tray, tryremoving it through the tray above (if applicable) or through the cartridge-door area.

3. Before replacing the tray, make sure the paper is flat in the tray at all four corners and below thetabs on the guides.

4. Open and close the cartridge door to clear the jam message.

If a jam message persists, there is still media in the device. Look for media in other locations.


Clear jams from the print-cartridge area1. Open the cartridge door and remove the print cartridge.

CAUTION To prevent damage to the print cartridge, do not expose it to light for more thana few minutes.

2. Slowly pull the media out of the device. Be careful to not tear the media.

CAUTION Avoid spilling loose toner. Use a dry, lint-free cloth, to clean any toner that mighthave fallen into the device. If loose toner falls into the device, it might cause temporaryproblems with print quality. Loose toner should clear from the paper path after a few pagesare printed. If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing incold water. (Hot water sets toner into fabric.)

3. Replace the print cartridge, and then close the cartridge door.


ENWW Clear jams 153

Clear jams from the output-bin areas

NOTE If media is jammed in the top output area, but most of the media is still inside the device,it is best to remove it through the rear door.

1. Open the rear door. (The rear output bin might be hard to open. If necessary, pull hard to open it.)Let the rear door drop completely open.

2. Grasp both sides of the media, and slowly pull the media out of the device. (There might be loosetoner on the media. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or into the device.)

NOTE If media is difficult to remove, try opening the cartridge door and removing the printcartridge to release pressure on the media.


3. Close the rear door. (The clips automatically return to their original positions when the rear door isclosed.)



Clear jams from the optional duplexer1. Remove tray 2 from the device.

2. Push the green button on the top right front of the tray 2 opening to access the duplex paper path.

ENWW Clear jams 155

3. Reach in and pull out the jammed paper.

5. Reinstall tray 2.



Interface troubleshootingThe following sections provide instructions for interface troubleshooting.

Communications checks

NOTE Communication problems are normally the customer's responsibility. Time spentattempting to resolve these problems might not be covered by the Hewlett-Packard productwarranty. Refer the customer to the network administrator for assistance in troubleshootingnetwork problems.

If the device is not connected directly to a Windows or MS-DOS-based host, see EIO troubleshootingon page 157.

CAUTION HP LaserJet printers are not designed to work with mechanical switch-box productsthat don't have correct surge protection. These devices generate high transient voltages thatcause permanent damage to the formatter. This circumstance is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard product warranty.

Computer direct connect (parallel) testAfter the device is installed, verify communications by bypassing the Windows driver between the deviceand the IBM-compatible computer. Type the following information at the MS-DOS prompt:

C:\DIR>LPT1 Enter (for printing to parallel port #1)

The device should print a directory listing of the C:\ directory. You might need to press on the controlpanel to print the data that is in the buffer.

EIO troubleshootingIf the device contains an optional HP Jetdirect print server, and you cannot communicate with the deviceover the network, verify that the print server is operating. Print a configuration page (see Use informationpages on page 38). If the Jetdirect card does not appear under "Installed personalities and options" onthe configuration page, reseat or replace the Jetdirect EIO card. See the troubleshooting section ofthe HP Jetdirect Print Server Software Administrators Guide.

When the HP Jetdirect print server is installed correctly, print a Jetdirect page (this page automaticallyprints when a Jetdirect print server is installed and a configuration page is printed). See Use informationpages on page 38. The Jetdirect page contains valuable network-related information about the device.

The following illustration shows the contents of the Jetdirect page.

Figure 6-2 Jetdirect page

1 HP Jetdirect Configuration If the EIO Jetdirect card is installed correctly and the device completes its internaldiagnostics, the I/O CARD READY status message prints. If communication is lost, an I/O NOT READY status messageprints, followed by a two-digit error code. See the HP Jetdirect Network Interface Configuration Guide for further detailsand recommended action.

2 Network Statistics This block indicates that network activity has been occurring. Bad packets, framing errors,unsendable packets, and collisions should be minimal. If a high percentage (greater than one percent) of these occur,contact the network administrator. All of the statistics are set to zero when the device is turned off.

3 TCP/IP In this block, the default IP address is "192.0.0.192." You can operate the device by using this default address.The error message ARP DUPLICATE ADDRESS might appear in this block. This is an acceptable error code if the TCP/IP protocol is not being used. Check with the network administrator to determine the correct IP address for the device.To configure the device's IP address, go to the control panel EIO menu, select CFG NETWORK=YES, select CFG TCP/IP=YES, and then select BOOTP=NO.

4 Novell/NetWare This block should state the name of the Novell printer server to which the device is connected. If thenode name reads "NPIxxxxxx" (where xxxxxx = the last six digits of the EIO LAN address), the EIO card has not beenconfigured for a Novell server. This could indicate that the card is operating under protocol other than Novell. Check withthe network administrator to determine what node name might be appropriate.

Network printing problems1. Verify that the network cable is securely connected to the device and to the network.

2. Verify that the Jetdirect LED on the formatter is lit.


3. Print a configuration page to verify that the I/O card is ready (see Use information pageson page 38). An HP Jetdirect configuration page also will print.

4. On the HP Jetdirect configuration page, confirm the following settings:

● Under HP Jetdirect Configuration, the status us “I/O Card Ready”.

● The status is “Ready”.

● An IP address is listed.

● The configuration method (Config by:) is listed correctly. See the network administrator if youare not sure which method is correct.

● The domain name is listed correctly.

5. Perform a ping test to verify that the device is communicating with other devices on the network.

a. Press Menu.

b. Use to select CONFIGURE DEVICE, and the press .

c. Use to select I/O, and the press .

d. Use to select EMBEDDED JETDIRECT MENU, and the press .

Service mode functionsCold reset

A cold reset unlocks menus that have been previously locked and sets all control panel menu items(including EIO settings) back to the factory defaults. However, it does not clear the values in theSERVICE menu (such as the serial number and page counts).

NOTE Before performing a cold reset, print a menu map and a configuration page (see Useinformation pages on page 38). Use the information on the configuration page to reset anycustomer-set device configuration values that the cold reset procedure changes.


2. Turn the device on. When the memory count begins, press and hold the button. Continue holdingdown the button until all three device control-panel lights flash once and then remain on. Thismight take up to 10 seconds.

3. After the message SELECT LANGUAGE appears on the display, press the button or the button until COLD RESET is highlighted.

4. Press . The device performs a cold reset and then continues its power-on sequence.

5. Check all I/O settings and reset any customer-set device configuration values.

NVRAM initialization

CAUTION Initializing the NVRAM resets the serial number, the event log, the page counts, andthe EIO card (initializing the NVRAM resets SERVICE menu values to factory defaults). Use theservice menu to restore the serial number and page counts. Also reconfigure any computers thatprint to this device so that the computers can recognize the device. Initialize the NVRAM onlywhen absolutely necessary. In most situations, use a cold reset rather than a NVRAM initializationto reset device settings (this will retain the values in the SERVICE menu).

NOTE Before performing a NVRAM initialization, print a menu map and a configuration page(see Use information pages on page 38). Use the information on the configuration page to resetany customer-set device configuration values that the NVRAM initialization procedure changes.Take special note of thetotal page count, maintenance count, and the serial number.

2. Press the button or the button until the first digit of the PIN code appears. Press to savethat digit. Repeat this selection procedure until you have typed the entire eight-digit PIN code. Youcan use the button to return to a PIN digit. When the last digit is saved, the SERVICE submenuappears on the control-panel display.

3. Use the button or the button to scroll to the menu item that you want, and then press .

● CLEAR EVENT LOG. Select this item to clear (reset to zero) the internal event log.

● ENGINE CYCLES. Select this item to set the total number of pages that have been printed to-date.Typically this is required only when a new formatter is installed.

● REFURBISH CYCLE COUNT. Select this item to reset the device page count after the deviceengine has been refurbished.

● SERIAL NUMBER. Select this item to update the serial number if you replace the formatter.

● SERVICE ID. Select this item to specify the date when the device was first used, rather than thedate when a replacement formatter is installed. See Service ID on page 162.

● COLD RESET PAPER. Select this item to reset the default paper size when you replace theformatter or restore factory settings (see Cold reset on page 160). When you replace a formatteror restore factory settings in a country/region that uses A4 as the standard paper size, use thisitem to reset the default paper size to A4. Letter and A4 are the only cold-reset values available.

Service IDThis information appears on the configuration page (see Use information pages on page 38), whicheliminates the need for customers to keep paper receipts for proof of the warranty. Because the devicedoes not have an internal clock, the availability of the service ID date depends on the device beingconnected to a source that can provide the date, in this case a time server on the same network as thedevice. When the device is not connected to a date source, the service ID is not available, and 00000appears on the configuration page.

Restoring the service IDIf you replace the formatter, the date is lost. Use this menu item to reset the value to the date that thedevice was first used. The date format is YYDDD. Use the following procedure to calculate the date.

1. To calculate YY, subtract 1990 from the calendar year. For instance, if the device was first used in2002, calculate YY as follows: 2002 - 1990 = 12 (YY = 12).

2. To calculate DDD, use the following formula: 30 (calendar month - 1) + calendar day = DDD. If thecalendar day is 31, use 30 instead. For instance, if the printer was first used on October 17,calculate DDD as follows:

a. Subtract 1 from 10 (October is the tenth month of the year): 10 - 1 = 9.

b. Multiply 9 by 30: 9 x 30 = 270.

c. Add 17 to 270: 270 + 17 = 287 (DDD = 287).


Convert the service ID to an actual dateYou can use the device service ID number to determine whether the device is still under warranty. Usethe following procedure to convert the service ID into the installation date.

1. Add 1990 to YY to determine the actual year that the device was installed.

2. Divide DDD by 30 and add 1 to the remainder. The total is the month.

3. The remainder from the calculation in step 2 is the day of the month.

Using the Service ID 12287 as an example, the date conversion is as follows:

● 12 + 1990 = 2002, so the year is 2002.

● 287 divided by 30 = 9 with a remainder of 17. Add 1 to 9 to get 10 so the month is October.

● The remainder (from the above calculation) is 17, so that is the day of the month.

● The complete date is 17-October-2002.

A six-day grace period is built into the date system.

Upgrade the firmwareThe device has remote firmware update (RFU) capability. Use the information in this section to upgradethe device firmware. The overall process involves the following steps:

1. Determine the current level of firmware that is installed on the device.

2. Go to the HP Web site and find out whether a firmware update is available. If an update is available,download the latest firmware to your computer.

3. Transfer the new firmware from your computer to the device.

Determine the current firmware version1. Print a configuration page. See Use information pages on page 38.

2. Locate the Firmware Datecode entry in the Printer Information section. The firmware datecodehas this format: YYYYMMDD XX.XXX.X. The first string of numbers is the date, where YYYYrepresents the year, MM represents the month, and DD represents the date. For example, afirmware datecode of that begins with 20040225 represents February 25, 2004.

Download the new firmware from the HP Web siteTo find the most recent firmware upgrade, go to www.hp.com/go/LJP3005_software. This page providesinstructions for downloading the new firmware version.

Transfer the new firmware to the deviceUse one of the following methods to update the firmware.

Use FTP to upgrade the firmware on a network connection1. Take note of the IP address on the HP Jetdirect page. The HP Jetdirect page is the second page

that prints when you print the configuration page.

NOTE Before upgrading the firmware, make sure that the device is not in Sleep mode.Also make sure that any error messages are cleared from the control-panel display.

2. Open an MS-DOS command prompt on your computer.

3. Type: ftp <TCP/IP ADDRESS>. For example, if the TCP/IP address is 192.168.0.90, type ftp 192.168.0.90.

Troubleshoot general printing problemsThe device selects media from the wrong tray.

Cause Solution

The tray selection in the software program might be incorrect. For many software programs, the paper tray selection is foundon the Page Setup menu within the program.

Remove any media in other trays to make the device selectfrom the correct tray.

For Macintosh computers, use the HP LaserJet Utility tochange the priority of the tray.

The configured size does not match the size of the media thatis loaded in the tray.

Through the control panel, change the configured size tomatch the size of the media that is loaded in the tray.

The device does not pull media from a tray.

Cause Solution

The tray is empty. Load media in the tray.

The paper guides are set incorrectly. To set the guides correctly, see the user guide.

For the 500-sheet tray, make sure that the leading edge of themedia stack is even. An uneven edge can prevent the lift platefrom rising.

Paper curls when it exits the device.

Cause Solution

The paper curls when it exits to the top output bin. Open the rear output bin to allow the paper to exit in a straightpath through the device.

Turn over the paper that you are printing on.

Reduce the fusing temperature to reduce the curling. (See theuser guide.)

Print job is extremely slow.

Cause Solution

The job might be very complex.

The maximum speed of the device cannot be exceeded evenwhen more memory is added.

Printing speeds might be automatically reduced when printingon custom-sized media.

Note: Slower speeds are expected when printing on narrowpaper, when printing from tray 1, or when using the HIGH 2fuser mode.

Reduce the complexity of the page or try adjusting the print-quality settings. If this problem occurs frequently, add memoryto the device.


Print job is extremely slow.

Cause Solution

You are printing a PDF or PostScript (PS) file but are using aPCL printer driver.

Try using the PS printer driver rather than the PCL printerdriver. (You can usually do this from a software program.)

In the printer driver, Type is is set to card stock, heavy, rough,or bond paper.

In the printer driver, set the type to plain paper (see the userguide).

Note: If you change the setting to plain paper, the print job willprint faster. However, if you are using heavy media, for bestresults leave the printer driver set to heavy even thoughprinting might be slower.

Print job prints on both sides of the paper.

Cause Solution

The device is set for duplexing. See the user guide to change the setting, or see the onlineHelp.

Print job contains only one page but the device processes the back side of the page as well (the page comes part ofthe way out, and then goes back into the device).

Cause Solution

The device is set for duplexing. Even if the print job containsonly one page, the device also processes the back side.

See the user guide to change the setting, or see the onlineHelp.

Do not try to pull the page out of the device before duplexingis complete. Jamming might result.

Pages print, but are totally blank.

Cause Solution

The sealing tape might still be in the print cartridge. Remove the print cartridge and pull out the sealing tape.Reinstall the print cartridge.

The print cartridge might be empty. Replace the print cartridge.

The file might have blank pages. Check the file to make sure that it does not contain blankpages.

The device prints, but the text is wrong, garbled, or incomplete.

Cause Solution

The device cable is loose or defective. Disconnect the device cable and reconnect it. Try a print jobthat you know works. If possible, attach the cable and deviceto another computer and try a print job that you know works.Finally, try a new cable.

ENWW Troubleshoot general printing problems 173

The device prints, but the text is wrong, garbled, or incomplete.

Cause Solution

The device is on a network or sharing device and is notreceiving a clear signal.

Disconnect the device from the network and use a parallel orUSB cable to attach it directly to a computer. Print a job thatyou know works.

The wrong driver was selected in the software. Check the software device-selection menu to make sure thatthe device is selected.

The software program is malfunctioning. Try printing a job from another program.

The device does not respond when you select Print in the software.

Cause Solution

The device is out of media. Add media.

The device might be in the manual-feed mode. Change the device from manual-feed mode.

The cable between the computer and the device is notconnected correctly.

Disconnect and reconnect the cable.

The device cable is defective. If possible, attach the cable to another computer and print ajob that you know works. You might also try using a differentcable.

The wrong device was selected in the software. Check the software device selection menu to make sure thatthe correct device is selected.

The device might have a jam. Clear any jams, paying careful attention to the duplexer area(if your model has a duplexer). See Clear jams on page 148.

The software for the device is not configured for the printer port. Check the software device-selection menu to make sure thatit is using the correct port. If the computer has more than oneport, make sure that the device is attached to the correct one.

The device is on a network and is not receiving a signal. Check cable connections. Reinstall the printing software. Printa job that you know works.

Clear any stopped jobs from the print queue.

The device is not receiving power. If no lights are on, check the power-cord connections. Checkthe power switch. Check the power source.

The device is malfunctioning. Check the control-panel display for messages and lights todetermine if the device is indicating an error. Note anymessages and see Control-panel messages on page 131.


Troubleshoot media handling problemsIf media is feeding incorrectly, use the information in this section to identify and resolve the problem.

Multiple pages feedTable 6-3 Causes for multiple pages feeding

Cause Solution

Too much media (particularly envelopes) is loaded in tray 1. Remove some of the media and resend the print job.

The separation rollers and pads in the tray are worn ordamaged

Replace the rollers and separation pads.

The media edges are locked together. Flex the media stack before loading it into the device. Do notfan the media.

The spring pushing the separation roller or pad is defective. Replace the separation pad.

Pages are wrinkled or foldedTable 6-4 Causes for wrinkled or folded paper at the paper-path entrance

Cause Solution

The feed rollers or registration rollers are dirty or defective. Replace the affected rollers.

The paper path contains foreign substances or dirt. Remove any foreign substances or dirt from the paper path.

The cartridge shutter open/close mechanism is damaged.

(This can cause jams in which the media is crumpled into anaccordion fold under the print cartridge.)

The shutter in the print cartridge should open as you insert thecartridge. If a shutter does not open, replace the print cartridge.

The registration assembly is defective. If the registration arm is dirty, clean it. If the arm is scarred orworn, replace the registration assembly (see Registrationassembly on page 121.

Table 6-5 Causes for wrinkled or folded paper at the paper-path exit

Cause Solution

The fuser inlet guide is dirty. Replace the fuser (see Fuser on page 83).

The fuser pressure roller is dirty or damaged. Run several cleaning pages through the device. If the problempersists, replace the fuser (see Fuser on page 83).

Pages are skewedTable 6-6 Causes for skewed pages

Cause Solution

Paper dust or dirt has accumulated on the tray feed roller orseparation roller.

Clean or replace the rollers.

ENWW Troubleshoot media handling problems 175

Cause Solution

The tray feed roller and separation roller are worn irregularly. Replace the affected roller.

The registration assembly is defective. Replace the registration assembly (see Registrationassembly on page 121).

Media is loaded incorrectly. Verify that the media is loaded correctly and that alladjustments have been made. Verify that the guides in the trayare not too tight or too loose against the stack.

Table 6-6 Causes for skewed pages (continued)


Troubleshoot print-quality problemsThis section helps you define print-quality problems and what to do to correct them. Often print-qualityproblems can be handled easily by making sure that the device is correctly maintained, using print mediathat meets HP specifications, or running a cleaning page.

Print-quality checklistGeneral print-quality problems can be solved by following the checklist below.

● Check the printer driver to make sure that you are using the best available print-quality option (seethe user guide).

● Try printing with one of the alternative printer drivers. The most recent printer drivers area availablefor download from www.hp.com/go/LJP3005_software.

● Clean the inside of the device (see Clean the device on page 36).

● Check the paper type and quality (see Media specifications on page 13).

● Check to make sure that EconoMode is off in the software.

● Troubleshoot general printing problems (see Troubleshoot general printing problemson page 172).

● Install a new HP print cartridge, and then check the print quality again. (See the instructionsprovided with the print cartridge.)

NOTE If the page is totally blank (all white) check to make sure that the sealing tape is removedfrom the print cartridge and ensure that the print cartridge is installed correctly. Newer deviceshave been optimized to print characters more accurately. This might result in characters that looklighter or thinner than you are used to from your older device. If the page is printing images darkerthan those from an older device, and you want the images to match the older device, make thesechanges in your printer driver: on the Finishing tab, select Print Quality, select Custom,click Details, and select the check box for Print Images Lighter.
